Two Faces One Love
Black Shirt

Gabriel was shocked to hear Eilaria's question. He was confused as to what to answer. A second later, he smiled. "What's wrong with a black-and-black shirt?" asked Gabriel with a frown.

"Just ask, baby. You are not used to wearing all black clothes. I thought you were gone these few days because someone died."

"I didn't bring any clothes when I left so I stopped by one of the shops. Only this shirt has a size that fits me, so I just buy it."

Eilaria just nodded with a smile even though she was not satisfied with the answer Iel gave. She felt that something was deliberately hidden by her husband. But Eilaria did not want to force Iel. She could see that her husband looked very tired.

"Sleep!" Eil said then turned his body to remove some food from the refrigerator. Gabriel didn't go into the room. He chose to lay his body on the white sofa in the living room. Shortly afterwards, a soft snoring sounded from him.

Eilaria cooks with the ingredients. He tried to focus his mind on the cooking he was making even though his head was still occasionally looking towards the living room. He was afraid that Iel would wake up before he finished cooking.

Nearly 2 hours passed, and Eil finished their dinner. He had arranged everything on the table, including the tableware. Only the soup will be lifted, but somehow, the soup is spilled on Eil's hand.

"Ah....H.....!" Shouted Eil. The pot containing the soup could still be saved did not fall even though the contents had half fallen on the floor.

"What's up?" Gabriel who woke up when he heard Eil's scream. His eyes immediately widened to see Eilaria's wrists red and slightly blistered.

"Is there any flour?" tanya Iel looked panicked.

"It's in the fridge."

Iel opened the refrigerator, removing the wheat that was still wrapped in his bag. He immediately sprinkled the cold flour over Eil's wrists, which appeared red and blistered.

"Why can you be careless like this?" Gabriel led Eil to sit on the chair at the dining table. He blew Eilaria's hand.

"illness?" ask Iel.

"Yes" said Eil because he felt his hands throbbing and felt sore.

"You wait here, huh? I'm gonna find some painkillers around here." Gabriel stepped up but Eilaria's hand held him.

"Don't go, Iel. I'm afraid you won't come back."

Gabriel looked at Eil. "I'm just looking for a cure, Eil."

"I don't want you to go!"

"But your hand!"

"I can still hold it."

"But...."

"You shower! After that we'll eat together."

Gabriel nodded. He left Eilaria alone and immediately entered the room.

Eilaria endured the pain in her hands. He took a broom and

shovel trash to clean up the wasted soup onto the floor.

After that, he headed to the room. Iel was still in the bathroom. Eilaria stepped towards the window to close the glass window that had been opened. His eyes looked back at the car parked in the courtyard. Eilaria realized that she had never seen Gabriel take this car. All he knows is that Gabriel has 3 cars. Lamborghini, Pajero Sport and Honda Civic. All Gabriel's cars are black. But this car is white. Did Gabriel change his car?

After closing the window, Eilaria's gaze turned to the black pants and shirt that Iel had opened and placed on top of the dirty laundry basket. Eilaria picked up the shirt and kissed it. His forehead shriveled as he did not find the smell of new clothes. The smell of drugs and alcohol. Was it because Iel's body was cut and bruised until this shirt smelled like a person working in a hospital?

"What's up?" gabriel asked who had come out of the bathroom.

Eilaria hurriedly put the shirt in its original place. He looked at Iel with a smile. "Want to eat now?" ask Eil.

"Can. I'm hungry."

Eil held Iel's hand so that the two of them came out of the room with a smile.

Gabriel ate with his heart. "Taste you good."

"Then anyway? You'll have eaten my favorite food a few times."

"It feels better this time."

"Maybe it's because it was made when I was your wife." Said Eil with a slightly blushing face.

"Maybe." Iel confirmed while staring at the blushing Eil.

"Why eat only a little rice? You're spending more on vegetables."

"The eggs are delicious. Especially the soup."

"Finish the meal, let me make the dinner table. Your hand is hurt."

Eilaria just nodded happily. They also finished eating. Gabriel immediately cleaned the dining table and washed all the dirty eating utensils. He also mopped up the dirty floor. While Eilaria chose to take a bath because she felt her body was a bit sultry finished cooking.

Gabriel finished his task in the kitchen. He took his cell phone from his room and went out to find a good cell phone signal.

*********

Eilaria finished the bath. He was confused about what to wear. Is she going to wear her super sexy nightgown? Will she and Iel start their bridal night? What if Iel's body still hurts from the wounds on his body?

Eil decided to wear short-handed pajamas. He rolled his long hair up, then immediately exited the room. He did not find Gabriel in the living room or kitchen.

"Honey.....!" call him out of the house. He was relieved to see that Iel's car was still there.

Where is Iel? Is he looking for a place to call?

Almost an hour Eilaria waited, and he saw Iel coming down the road from above the main entrance. In his hand was a plastic bag.

"Where from?" ask Eil.

"From above. I called my family doctor to find out what medicine your hand was on. Then I asked the guard to buy it at a nearby dispensary. Now, let me smear this ointment." Gabriel stepped in first.

Eil sat on the sofa while Iel knelt before him. He cleaned Eil's hand with a yellow liquid and then he dried it with tissue. After that he smeared the saleb in the hands of the wounded Eil.

"It feels cold." Said Eil.

"That will make your hands heal quickly. Now take painkillers and antibiotics said Iel. He took two pills and a glass of water and gave them to Eil. The girl drank it obediently. Gabriel kept the medicine in a closet in the room, and sat down next to Eil.

"What about your wounds?" ask Eil and then touch Iel's shoulder.

"It's a little better." Answer Gabriel.

"Dear, I miss you so much." Eilaria took Iel's hand and held it tightly.

"We're together again, right?"

Eilaria. He rested his head on Iel's arm. "Honey, where are we going on our honeymoon? You will say that after from here, then we will travel around Indonesia. I want to go to Medan where Oma Maura came from and I also want to go to Manado where Oma Faith came from. What say?"

"I'm sorry, Eil. Looks like I'll have to postpone a little bit of our honeymoon trip. I have some important things to do in Jakarta. So tomorrow, we have to go back to Jakarta."

"really?" Eilaria looked up and looked at Iel. His face was a little pouting. Didn't Iel say before their wedding that all his business was done? Gabriel had even made time for 1 month for a walk. Why do you say there is a job?

Iel looked down a little. "I'm sorry. I didn't think it would happen like this either."

Eilaria rests her head on Iel's chest. "Actually I'm sad because our plan is off. But I'm happy because we're finally together. It is better that our honeymoon be postponed first because you have just had an accident. My hand was also injured.

Gabriel rubbed his wife's head. "I promise if the situation improves, then we go to Medan and Manado as you dream."

"Thank you, baby.." Eilaria kissed Gabriel's cheek. "Oh yeah, now you can tell me, where have you been for 3 days?"

"I'm on medication."

Eilaria looked at her husband. "The cure? Why didn't you tell me?"

"I don't want to worry you, baby."

"Come on, Iel. I'm your wife. I should have been with you when it was hard and happy. Is that our wedding vows?" Eilaria's voice sounded a little angry. The look in his eyes even slightly exuded a radiance of emotion.

"Eil, that morning I woke up with pain in my chest. I decided to find a doctor. You slept really well and I couldn't wake you up. It turned out that the doctor had to hold me for a few days to undergo this and that examination. Thankfully the results are good."

"Next time don't be like this? We must be together in joy and sorrow. I'm your wife, Iel."

"Yes. I'm sorry, aren't I? Now it's time for us to go to sleep. I was also already sleepy due to the effect of the medicine I was taking."

Eilaria. Without letting go of their handrails, the two stepped into the room.

Gabriel laid his body beside Eilaria. He grimaced a little while trying to sleep sideways. Finally he went back to sleep.

"Still sick?" eil asked a bit worried.

"it looks like."

Eil also sleeps on his back like Iel. The two are silent. Until finally Eil who first fell asleep. Gabriel looked at Eil softly. He also tried to close his eyes.
